    Development of ground vegetation biomass and nutrient pools in a clear-cut disc-plowed boreal forest

    Nutrient leaching from forest substrate after clear-cutting and subsequent soil preparation is strongly influenced by the capacity of ground vegetation to sequester the released nutrients. We studied the rates...

    Responses of ground vegetation species to clear-cutting in a boreal forest: aboveground biomass and nutrient contents during the first 7 years

    Rapid growth of ground vegetation following clear-cutting is important to site productivity because vegetation retains nutrients in the ecosystem and can decrease nutrient leaching prior to stand re-establishm...

    Changes in the Above- and Below-ground Biomass and Nutrient Pools of Ground Vegetation After Clear-cutting of a Mixed Boreal Forest

    Ground vegetation may act as a sink for nutrients after clear-cutting and thus decrease leaching losses. Biomass and nutrient (N, P, K, Ca) pools of ground vegetation (mosses, roots and above-ground parts of f...

    Effects of forest clear-cutting on the sulphur, phosphorus and base cations fluxes through podzolic soil horizons

    Clear-cutting considerably alters the flow of nutrients through the forest ecosystem. These changes are reflected in soil solution concentrations and fluxes. The effects of clear-cutting (stems only) on the fl...

    Release of potassium, calcium, iron and aluminium from Norway spruce, Scots pine and silver birch logging residues

    Potassium (K), calcium (Ca), iron (Fe) and aluminium (Al) release from Norway spruce (Picea abies Karsten), Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and silver birch (Betula pendula Roth.) logging residues (fine roots, f...

    Effects of forest clear-cutting on the carbon and nitrogen fluxes through podzolic soil horizons

    Effects of clear-cutting on the dissolved fluxes of organic C (DOC), organic N (DON), NO3 and NH4 + through surface soil horizons were studied in a Norway spruce dominated mixed boreal forest in eastern Finland...
